After committing to Dana Altman and the Bluejays when he was just 15 years old, Antoine Young carved out a role immediately after arriving at CU and finished his career as CU’s first-ever player to score at least 1,325 points and dish 500 or more assists. He finished 17th on Creighton’s all-time scoring chart, and his 505 assists ranked third-most in Bluejay annals, with only Ryan Sears (570) and Ralph Bobik (549) having more at the time Young’s career ended.
Creighton’s non-conference gauntlet continued on the west coast. Matt and Megan break down the weekend in our weekly podcast.
Matt and Megan recap the Bluejays weekend in Madison where they went 1-1.
The school-record holder for best career three-point shooting percentage (45.5%), most consecutive games with a made three (31), and most consecutive made free throws (36) at the time his career ended, Booker Woodfox hit two game-winning shots, including one of the most famous shots in CU history in the quarterfinals of Arch Madness to take down Wichita State. Winner of the 2008 MVC Sixth Man Award, the 2009 Larry Bird MVC Player of the Year Award and a 2009 AP Honorable Mention All-American, Woodfox was also the leading scorer on a team that won the 2009 regular season MVC title.
The Bluejays get that first win under their belts and can grow from here.
